Ep. 140 - Growing Mushrooms
This week, we’re digging into a topic I have been asked numerous times to cover and really couldn’t because I’d never grown them! With names like puffball, stinkhorn, enoki, paddy straw, shaggy mane, and more, I didn’t even know where to begin to research how to grow them much less do a deep dive into the ethnobotany of the crop.
I’m talking about mushrooms. This is not going to be my typical crop specific episode because the rabbit hole I went down made me realize the awesome complexity of what we refer to as a mushroom and all the different traditional and current uses for them. So, while we’ll deviate a little from the format today, prepare to learn everything you can possibly imagine learning about growing mushrooms in about a 40-minute timeframe. And, trust me, there’s a lot. Let’s dig in!
